[governance] Important standardization project in ISO/IEC

In ISO/IEC JTC1 SC38, a new work item proposal with the title “SLA
Framework and Terminology” has just been approved.

This is in the context of cloud computing. If this standardization
project is going to be influential (which I think it is going to be,
for better or worse), it's going to determine to a large extent how
the contracts between cloud service providers and their customers
will be shaped.

I think that this is a very important standardization project for civil
society to be engaged in.

For those with access to ISO/IEC documents, the relevant documents are
ISO/IEC HTC1 SC38 N881 New Work Item Proposal
ISO/IEC HTC1 SC38 N902 Summary of Voting
ISO/IEC HTC1 SC38 N903 US National Body Contribution

Greetings,
Norbert
